Pimp my mount

With the Dragonflight Expansion, we get customizable mounts with the dragons. It’s a great feature but it could still be better if we could expand this feature to other mounts.


Please keep in mind these mounts are new mounts to be customized, they won’t erase the old ones. You could still use the old one if you want.


Here what I have in my mind:

We could expend this feature to some mounts with a HD model, one per main race.

We will get a customizable mount and you can be it to vendors in the capital city.

All these mounts can be used by all your characters as long as they are in the same faction of the mount.

You can purchase new customizations at reputation vendors, old dungeons, old raids, rare mobs.



Here are the 15 mounts:

  • Human: Horse
  • Dwarf: Ram
  • Gnome: Mechanostrider
  • Night Elf: Saber cat
  • Draenei: Elekk
  • Worgen: Horse
  • Flying mount: Gryphon

  • Orc: Wolf
  • Troll: Raptor
  • Tauren: Kodo
  • Undead: Skeletal Horse
  • Blood Elf: Hawkstrider
  • Goblins: Trike
  • Flying mount: Wind Rider

  • Neutral flying mount: Hippogryph


We will take the horse as example.

Human: Horse => You can customize many things:

  • The skin color: Dark, Grey, Dark Brown, Light Brown, White, etc

  • You can choose the form of its crest

  • The color of its eyes

  • You can choose if it must hold a banner or not (all banner races are described underneath)

So like Dragonriding customization, but applied to our own racial mounts?

I dig it.

Going forward, we need more options like this in WoW.

For racial mounts, I can agree. I wouldn’t mind customizing my vorquin.

Oh no! You are asking for more customization!

I’d be 100% down for that

There is a lot of things they can incorporate from Dragonriding concept into many of the old mounts that would breath some new life into them. But this being Blizzard, we will probably never see it. If its not Mythic + or Raid mechanic to please the players that do that. They seem to not care about anything else that might strike an interest in other players.

Oh my gosh what a fantastic idea!!!

I adore this one. It could be so much fun to unlock special customizations for them too. Even have little things in the trading post for them.
